All of the University of Portsmouth's degrees provide a solid grounding, with 'hard edged' and reliable skills. As a result, graduates are always highly sought after by emplyers.

The Faculty of Technology provides an extensive variety of specialist courses, including Civil Engineering, Petroleum Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. With cutting-edge laboratories, close relationships with industry and excellent teaching on offer, University of Portsmouth students receive the very best start to their chosen career. All pathways can contain an optional 'sandwich' year in industry where students can gain invaluable, practical work experience. Those who undertake this year are amongst the most highly sought-after when seeking employment.

Civil Engineering

The School of Civil Engineering and Surveying is ranked 22nd in the UK (The Guardian University Guide 2014 League Table). The Department has a variety of laboratories for materials and structures testing, fluid flow modeling and geotechnical investigation. Portsmouth has a long-established network of civil engineering consulting and contracting organisations that provide real-world case studies, curriculum advice and feedback on student's work.

The School Engineering

The School provides a thriving and exciting learning environment for students and recognises that engineering management and technology provides a more creative aspect in the field of engineering. Throughout their studies students will face exciting technical and business challenges and will develop their skills in scientific understanding and risk taking whilst experiencing working as part of a team.

Petroleum Engineering

Global economic growth is highly dependent on the long-term supply of oil and gas. Currently, there is a major international shortage of qualified engineers in the petroleum industry and this new course has been designed to produce graduates who wish to take advantage of the exciting and highly rewarding career prospects in this area.

• Civil engineering is key to economic and social stability throughout the world and by studying this pathway, students can join the ranks of professionals who design, construct and manage tomorrow's towns and cities.
